It s simple: transform your IT infrastructure with SUSE OpenStack Cloud and accelerate your business. The Rapid Innovation You Want, Backed by the Enterprise Support You Require As cloud computing technologies continue to evolve, the solutions you invest in need to keep pace. At the same time, your private cloud needs to be stable and secure, so you can sleep at night. That s the power of SUSE OpenStack Cloud.

6 Get a Faster Return on Your Private Cloud Investment Deploying a private cloud is hard work. It is complex. It can take a lot of time just to set up and manage a basic cloud. With SUSE OpenStack Cloud you can have your cloud up and running in hours not days. By integrating the Crowbar project with OpenStack, SUSE OpenStack Cloud simplifies the deployment and ongoing administration of your physical cloud infrastructure. Crowbar eases the pain of installation by providing a logical, streamlined process for setting up SUSE OpenStack Cloud. And SUSE OpenStack Cloud still provides you with the maximum flexibility to take advantage of the configuration options of OpenStack to meet your specific needs. By reducing the complexity of cloud installation and management with SUSE OpenStack Cloud, you can immediately benefit from your move to the cloud. Reduce Your Future Operational and Capital Expenses Virtualization has helped you dramatically improve server utilization rates and made it easier to deploy workloads as VMs. Now you face a new problem: VMs continuing to consume data center resources after they are no longer in use. This VM sprawl hurts utilization. While you no longer need to wait weeks for a physical server to arrive and be set up, the often manual, imprecise task of provisioning VMs consumes your IT staff s valuable time. By deploying a private cloud with SUSE OpenStack Cloud, you can orchestrate a more efficient data center keeping your IT costs under control. By tracking the usage of computing resources and automating service delivery, SUSE OpenStack Cloud dramatically improves server utilization. With SUSE OpenStack Cloud you can monitor the activities and capacity of the cloud infrastructure to ensure optimal deployment and maximize computing resources. Also, line-of-business staff can easily deprovision VMs when they are done using them through the SUSE OpenStack Cloud self-service portal reducing VM server sprawl and freeing computing capacity. By automating, optimizing, and simplifying the provisioning of computing resources with SUSE OpenStack Cloud your business can get more use out of the servers they have without over-investing in capacity. By automating service deployment and management tasks, you can decrease the number of IT staff needed to manage many servers. This also improves productivity because your IT staff can focus on managing the overall infrastructure and delivering value-added projects rather than managing individual VMs. Using SUSE OpenStack Cloud you can become your enterprise s cloud service provider by developing and delivering services faster and more accurately for bottom-line savings and top-line growth.
